Gmartket

So Koreans are really big on buying on the internet. One of the largest online sites is Gmarket. This site is great for foreigners because you can order online and then pay the fee at the bank, like a bill (rather than use a credit card). Since I have to buy almost all of own furniture, I have discovered the joy of this site. I bought myself a new desk (it is a desk/bookshelf unit) for only 59$ and I have a fouton coming next week. Also, one of the listing companies on the site is IKEA Sweden, so I ordered all my dishes and pots and pans from them. It is so easy.
This month at the Village I am teaching Chemistry. I get to teach the children to make mint toothpaste. It is a lot of fun so far, and my teeth have never been cleaner (especially since I am brushing them 5-10 times a day).
I am excited though to start my new job in Ansan. I am getting more excited about my own apartment daily. I have seen a few photos of the new place, and it looks good, clean.... and of course the kitchen looks glorious.
Things are good.
Hope you had a good Canada Day.
Cheers!
